Turf Toe Treatment Guidelines Handout

The fastest way to cure turf toe involves rest, ice, compression, and elevation (RICE) combined with physical therapy to improve range of motion and strengthen the big toe joint. Severe cases may require a walking boot and more extended rest periods.

Walking on turf toe should be minimized to prevent further injury and allow healing. Use supportive footwear and follow a physical therapist's recommendations for safe movement.

Wearing a walking boot for turf toe can help immobilize the joint and promote healing, especially in more severe cases. Consult with a healthcare professional to determine if a boot is necessary for your specific injury.
